Description

Game Name?

Mega Man Network Transmission - GREE08
Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes - GGSEA4
F-Zero GX - GFZE01
Super Mario Sunshine - GMSE01

What's the problem? Describe what went wrong in few words.

While D3D correctly emulates Point/Line-Width, OpenGL does not. The solution to this is to implement geometry shaders in OpenGL to handle the situations where it is necessary.

Playing MegaMan Network Transmission and observing spawn/death animations, the rain in F-Zero GX's Thunder tracks at higher IRs, Metal Gear Solid Twin Snakes Minimap at higher resolutions, Super Mario Sunshine's expanding loading bubbles at higher resolutions.

Does using an older version of Dolphin solve your issue? If yes, which
versions of Dolphin used to work?

Older versions of Dolphin do not work; as far as I can tell this has never been implemented.

What are your PC specifications? (including, but not limited to: Operating
System, CPU and GPU)

Core i5 3570K, GTX 760, Radeon HD5850, Windows 7 x64
